Steve's property was perfect for us - not far to walk to downtown near restaurants and the water. The property was clean and we had plenty of room for 2 people. Would stay again if in the area.

Cozy bungalow in historic Mount Dora was an easy walk to restaurants and shops. Nestled in a cute neighborhood. The folks in Mount Dora are very friendly and welcoming. We had no problems taking our service dogs into any restaurant or Shop. I highly recommend a stay at the cozy bungalow whenever your travels take you to Mount Dora.

The moment we entered the property we were charmed of how cute it was. Inside so cozy and a lot of natural lighting and very clean. The place was perfect and the home displays a lot of character. The beds were super comfy and I loved that it had two full bathrooms. Best, so close to Downtown Mount Dora just a few blocks away!

What a great little spot to stay! Cozy, homey, and welcoming! We hardly had to drive anywhere, except to the next town over to a restaurant we wanted to go to. Checking in was super easy! Downtown is maybe a 10 minute walk, and you get to see so much of the whimiscal charm of Mt. Dora on the way! We (and our pups) had such a great time and cannot wait to go back! Thank you so much!

Clean but very dated. One of the reasons we chose this place was for the fenced backyard but the gate was broken so it wasn't suitable to let our dogs lose.

Hi Rita, Thank you for your review and feedback. The Cozy Bungalow is a Historic property and we've tried to keep the historic charm. We did redo the hall bathroom last year and have new TVs along with leather sofa. Sorry to hear about the fence. If we would have know we could of had the lock fixed for you on the fence. It is already repaired. Take Care, Steve

About the host

Hosted by Steve Perez

Host profile image
My wife and I are both in the real estate industry and own a brokerage firm in Orlando, FL named Kona Realty Services. We are both graduates from the University of Central Florida and have three great kids. We work hard and play hard and bungalow is the most relaxing place we know. We get to visit several times a year and enjoy snowboarding, fishing and just relaxing.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the charm of Mt Dora and enjoy the art festival, Christmas parade and many other events the city has to offer. We also take our boat and explore all the lakes in the area.

What makes this property unique

The bungalow is walking distance to downtown and we also have bikes for guests use.
